New Doctor Who Spin-Off Announced! · 12:53am Oct 2nd, 2015
Today, it was announced that a new Doctor Who spin-off will begin airing next year. The spin-off will be called Class and will focus on students at Coal Hill School crossing paths with various alien threats and villains. The first season will consist of eight 45 minutes episodes.
I'm definitely interested in seeing how this plays out. Doctor Who hasn't had a spin-off since The Sarah Jane Adventures and Torchwood ended. To be honest, I wasn't expecting this at all. The DW Twitter page had been teasing a big piece of news and I was expecting us to learn the identity of the next companion. But this was an interesting piece of news as well. And if they have picked the next companion I assume they'll wait until towards the end of Series 9's run to reveal him/her.
So what do the rest of you think of this reveal? Will you be tuning in to watch Class? You can read more about the announcement at this link here.
Also, on a quick last note, I go by "The Cautiously Optimistic Whovian" over on Doctor Who TV. Just wanted to put that out there for anyone else here who has an account over there.
